Re: ep45-ds3 e8400 @4.2ghz

Is that 555-12 at 990? If so you can try a higher trfc with lower Static, or higher trrd with higher static.... Or a mix of them both.

I can say for sure it would be better for you to start with most of the subtimings higher and then get Static tRead Value lower then start lowering the others. Static tRead Value has the MOST impact on performance/speeds so you want it lower First before anything else

Re: ep45-ds3 e8400 @4.2ghz

Ya, you likely would. But what spec for voltage you see on the sticker is the warrantied amount. So if you fry it you would have to RMA it and hope it was not burnt internally and lie to them of course about the voltages used.

Some boards overvolt by default anyway so I doubt they would be able to say much unless you pumped 2.5 or so into them.

2.2 is the recommended max "Safe Range" for DDR2, when using 2.2 I always suggest a fan for sure.

using 2.3 and 2.4 is doable for most DDR2 but only for short periods and is not recommended at all for long term use.

2.2 is generally safe for most 2.1 spec'd ram, but please use a fan on the ram as it will be HOT
